By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer Don't give up on the St. Louis Browns. Luke Sewell's "hungry" cast offs, stumbling since mid-August and berat.d by friend and foe for blowing a comfortable lead, were only a half game behind the leading Detroit Tigers today on another comeback surge. Thanks to the Yanks, the Browns had a chance to make a new challenge for their first flag and the cash that goes with it. Although four windup games with the same Yanks next week end can make or break St. Louis' hopes, Vern Stephens, Nels Pot- ier ana to. were letting the fu ture take care of itself and con. centrating on the opportunity at When the New Yorkers woke up to snap a five-game losing en can uy aurnping .Detroit, 0-4, in a 10-innine series finalp vp. terday, their motive was strictly aeiiiou. ay tailing tneir only noma oi me sec irom ine Tigers, the defending champs" stuck in the race three lengths back with hopes of shortenine thp can in Cleveland while the hard-hitting Qusum nea box visit Detroit.

Fiore Lost to Leatherneck Team for Football Season With Broken Collar Bone Bad breaks overtook Klam ath's Marine grid squad this week as the team swung into high gear m practice scrimmage. rne services oi Pi c Joe Fiore who had been considered defi nitely first-strinz tackle, were iosi ior ine season wnen Fiore broke his collar bone in .Drac- tice. Weighing 205, the ex-New jersey semi-pro was one of the fastest men in the leatherneck line. Cpl. William Salvador!, full back, cracked two ribs in scrim mage, but medical officials be lieve that he will be sufficiently patched up to play in the opener against Willamette university, September 30. In an effort to bolster the weakened tackle situation, Maj. Clyde C. Roberts, coaching the Marines, has shifted Capt. James Higgins and Corporals Norman Fuller and Willie Crumpler to that spot. Higgins was all-southern tackle at Trinity university ior iwo years, Dut nas been working at guard and as line coacn tor tne Marines. Both. Fuller, and Crumpler were end candidates. Coming into the spotlight as an outstanding performer at end is PFC C. J. Zablosky, of Al bany, Calif. Zablosky is a rangy 6 foot 2 inch. 195-Dound wins- man, and is especially good on ueiense. Another fullback nmsneM who has been demonstrating ball-car rying ana Jine-smasnmg abilities in scrimmage is Pvt.

National Leaque Pennant Flies Over Card's Dugout NEW YORK, Sept. 22 () The 1944 National league pen nant flew over the St. Louis Cardinal dugout today the first time in 20 years it adorned the same National league flagpole inree straight seasons. After losing 11 of their last 14 games. Bill Southworth's lads clinched the NL title yes terday by taking a twin bill from the Boston Braves. De spite the lai?-season wobbling, tne uaras boast a la-game edge, with 11 games to plsy. They won the pennant bv la games last year. At one stage of the current race, however. they led by 20, a bigger margin than the first place team in the American league ever boasted over the last. The last club to win three or more pennants in a row was John McGraw's Giants who copped four from 1921 to 1924. Only three other clubs, the Pi rates of 1901-1903, The Cubs of 1906-1908, and the Giants of 1911-1913 won three straight? since ihuu. Southworth, first Card man ager to win three pennants should also become the first Na tional league pilot to win over 100 games for three successive years. -The Cards won 106 In 1942, 105 in '43 and have al ready won 98 games this sea son. Except at the start when the Giants won six of the first seven games, the Cards dominated the league. They took the lead April 29 and never relinquished it. ineir oiggest winning -streak was nine, from August 6 to Au gust zu. Uf the 41 series to date, the Cards won 29, lost seven and tied five. From July i uniu August o, they captured iu siraignt sets. Southworth, for a time, had his club bordering on suDor- greatness, threatening the Cubs' lib victory record of 1906. At that, the Cards tied the 1907 Cubs in winning 73 of their tirst 100 games.
